About Sean

This isn't a meltdown. It's a recalibration.

You've done what was expected. Held the line. Checked the boxes. And it worked—until it didn't.

But something's shifting.

That version of success you worked so hard for? It doesn't fit the way it used to. You built an identity that worked—until it stopped reflecting who you really are.

You're not lost. Just overdue for a recalibration.

I coach professionals 50+ navigating major life transitions—navigating career shifts, identity questions, relationship changes, and what comes after traditional success.

This isn’t about reinvention theater. It’s about getting strategic with your life—on your terms.

The ones who’ve outgrown the old story, but aren’t sure what the new one is yet.

The ones craving a different kind of momentum—one rooted in depth, truth, and real change.

This isn’t about productivity hacks, morning routines, or chasing your “best self.”

It’s about reclaiming your time, energy, and agency—before someone else writes your next chapter for you.

A Bit About Me

I split my time between Los Angeles and Buffalo, with a 1965 Airstream as my mobile studio. It lets me stay flexible, support my parents, and design a life that still makes room for freedom.

I’m an introvert, a systems thinker, and a coach who skips small talk—but lives for the big questions.

Coaching isn’t a performance. It’s the kind of conversation I wish someone had offered me back when I was quietly drifting out of sync with the life I built.

Why I do this work

Because I’ve lived it.

I spent years succeeding in roles that looked great on paper—but never quite fit me.

Eventually, I stopped performing. I chose something quieter, more honest, and more mine.

Now I help others do the same.

Most of my clients aren’t chasing a dramatic reinvention.

They’re just tired of performing old roles that no longer fit—and ready to figure out what actually does.

Credentials (if you care about that sort of thing)

  • PCC-Certified Professional Coach

  • Advanced training in:

    ▸ Systems Coaching (CRR Global / ORSC)

    ▸ Applied Neuroscience (NeuroLeadership Institute)

    ▸ Executive Coaching (Emory Goizueta)

  • MBA from SMU

  • 20+ years in senior leadership roles across tech and healthcare

But honestly, most clients aren’t hiring me because of the credentials.

They’re hiring me because:

  • I listen without trying to fix.

  • I don’t push an agenda.

  • And I ask the kind of questions that help you stop spinning—and start seeing what actually fits now.

No pressure. No pitch. Just an honest conversation about where you are—and what might come next.
